The famous artist in her own words and at her most revealing: a glimpse into Abramovic's inner world with personal stories and insightful musings paired with original drawings made especially for the book. Although long esteemed within the art world, Abramovic became a global cultural figure after her groundbreaking 2010 MoMA retrospective, The Artist Is Present. This volume, timed to celebrate her eightieth birthday in 2026--which will be marked by major events, including a large-scale project at the Park Avenue Armory--offers a fresh, personal encounter with the artist. Rather than a traditional monograph, it serves as a poetic map of her extraordinary life, tracing her mystical, daring, and often humorous journey through stories of love (with an entire section devoted to "love spells" and her dreams), sex, loss, fear, nature, ancestry, and creativity.
The volume is part sketchbook, part diary, part personal philosophy. Abramovic's voice remains direct and unfiltered, reflecting the spirit that has defined her five-decade career. Her reflections reveal the emotional and psychological terrain behind the boundary-pushing works that have reshaped the possibilities of art.
